Season 3 of Seeking Sister Wife offers a rare glimpse into the everyday life of five polygamous families, including the North Carolina-based trio, Kaleh, Vanessa, and Jarod Clark.<\/p>\n
As Jarod explained in a recently-released teaser, he met his first wife, Vanessa, while he was still in the military. He suggested they try polygamy about six-and-a-half years into the relationship but Vanessa shut down his first attempts. So, how did Kaleh come into the picture? Is she married to Jarod?<\/p>\n
\"We practice polygamy. Specifically, polygyny. Polygamy is the umbrella term for a multi-person relationship. Polygyny is geared more towards the male having separate wives and that's what we're striving to do,\" Jarod explained.<\/p>\n
A Seeking Sister Wife teaser captures how the trio moves into their brand new home. But the big change might mark the beginning of a less-than-harmonious chapter in their lives. As the clip shows, Jarod and Vanessa have been struggling to integrate Kaleh into the family.<\/p>\n
Jarod and Vanessa started out as a monogamous couple. Jarod took up an interest in polygyny about six-and-a-half years after they got married and he had some convincing to do at first.<\/p>\n
\"I introduced polygamy to Vanessa about three years ago, six-and-a-half years into our marriage. The response that I received from her was a flat, pure, unadulterated no,\" Jarod said.<\/p>\n

Vanessa struggled to come to terms with the concept in the beginning. As she explained in a clip, she was worried about how polygyny might impact her relationship with Jarod. What's more, she was convinced the new arrangement would only benefit Jarod.<\/p>\n
\"I thought it was more for you than it was for me. That was the biggest stigma that I had to get over,\" Vanessa told Jarod in a trailer.<\/p>\n

\"I knew absolutely nothing about polygamy. It took me a lot of learning, background, history, everything, to actually understand the benefits of it. I realized I would have somebody who has my back with not only my children, with my husband, with my house, with everything,\" Vanessa added.<\/p>\n
